preferablyonly of such depth that the pressure of the lugs 18 against the alinin surface 17 is reduced without the lugs eing moved out of actual contact with .the said' surface. lThe depression 20 is imlnediatel? i vthat .what I claim and desire to secure b y Letters Patent is l1. In a' typographical machine, the cembination ef'a mold, justifying mechanism, an elevator te carryv the' matrices'to' and from the mold 'and capable of' a" furtherl movement to aline them with referen'ce thereto, and a cam for imparting the aresaid movements to the elevator, the said cam' being formed to effect a slight relaxationl of the alining action during Justi'catio'n.

2. In a'typegraphical machine, the combination of a mold justifying mechanism'act-` ing in two successive stages'.I an elevator to carry the matrices to and from the mold and'capable of a further movement to aiine them with reference thereto, and fa cam-for imparting the aforesaid movementsto the elevator, the said cam being` formed withI tWo projecting portions to efect the alinement of the matrices in two successive vment of t meteen I stages, one following each of the justifying stages, and with an intermediate depres sion to permit a relaxation of the alining pressure between such alfnringstages,

In a typographical machine, the combination, of a mold justifying mechanism acting in two successive-stages, a matrix carrier to present` the matrices thereto and to aline the matrices in two successive stages, one following each of the'justifying stages, and a cam :for moving the carrier, the said cam being formed on its periphery 'with two' projectin portions which 'effect the aline- 'e matrices' in the aforesaid'stages and with an intermediate'depressionte-per .mit a relaxation oit the alining pressure he'M tween such alining sta es. r I

4. In a typograplnca machine, the combi nation of a mold, a line of matricest'o ceoperate with the meld,l mechanism for justifying the line in two successive stages, and

i means for alining the'matrices against the.

mold between the two jstifying stages, the said means being constructed to 'permit a slight relaxation of the alining action during said stages.

Q5. In a typographical machine, the combination oi a mold, a line of matrices to co operate with the mold, mechanis'mfor justitying the line in 'two' successive stages, and

' means for alining the matrices against the mold aftereach justifying stage, the said means being constructed. to permit slightl relaxation of the alining action duringsaid stages. ,i
